Gene Lacy found a video by Allan Webber with his band playing music in the Building 2 cafeteria in front of that little elevator back in 2009. Here is a link to it: Allan Webber band. Enjoy.

The old TI Stafford Building #2 is now history. Here is a video showing the demolition in progress. It's sad to see our old buildings disappear, but perhaps the replacements will be of value to the community. Stafford Bldg.2 demolition.

o You can read these articles that were in the Houston Chronicle regarding the work that is beginning on the old TI-Stafford site at these links:

Previously known as the TI Retiree Club of Houston (TIRET). Since June, 2012, we have become the TI Houston Alumni Association (TIHAA). The primary purpose of the TIHAA is to provide a social environment encouraging intra fellowship for TI alumni and their spouses residing in the greater Houston area. It functions as a venue for education, recreation, entertainment, and self-improvement for the membership. The TIHAA is affiliated with the Texins Association Clubs (TAC).
